Bob Burnquist message in Barcelona glitchDepending on which of the two previous levels you play (Boston or Atlanta), you can lose Bob Burnquist in one of two ways. In both levels they spin the Wheel of Loogies. When the loogie hits the "Cut One Loose" space, they decide to cut Burnquist. In Boston, Burnquist is lost when he is hit in his "area" by a tennis ball launched by a pitching machine. In Atlanta, he is caught by the cops while spray painting a cop car and is hauled away. When "Cut One Loose" is hit, Mike Vallely gets a call saying Burnquist's bail has been set at $20,000 so they decide to lose him. The glitch is, if you play the Atlanta level and get to the part in Barcelona where you receive the text message from Burnquist, the message still reads as though he had been hit with the tennis ball, as if you had previously played in Boston. |
Easy points in BerlinGo down the stairs, then past the cop in front of the door. Then go through that door and you will be on the roof. Walk into the air conditioning unit and it will break.

Super jump in Las VegasGo to the waterfall on the second story to find that the waterfall goes down into the bowl and up the other side.
